Product is amazing sound quality wise. It however does not work. When it works it's fantastic, but at this point I have sent it back three separate times for repair and none of the fixes has stuck for more than a couple of days. (The support line has actually been super helpful, no notes on them.) It's possible I just got a faulty model, but I cannot in good faith recommend this product with my experience.

The app does not work on my google phone. before I even enter my wifi password the enter button is over written by enter manually. it will not hook up as bluetooth either. I finally got it to hook up to the internet working it manually and it said activation failed. I am done. you would think a company as big as bose could figure it out. I am sending it back to bose.

Can’t make it work with with my LG Smart television. Very frustrating. I am a Bose fan historically. Perhaps it is just me/

Hi Chas, thank you for your valuable feedback, and we’re sorry to hear about the difficulties you're experiencing setting up your Soundbar with your LG Smart TV. You can connect your Bose Smart Soundbar to an LG Smart TV either through a wired or wireless method. For the best performance and control, we recommend using a wired connection with HDMI ARC or an optical cable. Alternatively, you can connect wirelessly via Bluetooth, just ensure the soundbar and TV are paired, then go to your TV’s sound settings to select the Bose soundbar as the audio output. For further guidance on connecting your Soundbar via Bluetooth, you can also refer to the troubleshooting steps in this link: https://bose.life/3Vu45Pj. Hope this helps! Kurt - Customer Support
Great sound bar and easy hookup. However, I need a sound bar with an opitical out connection not the optical in one. I use My Starkey app with Genius 24 hearing aids for streaming and I can’t not stream with this sound bar to my aids. Unfortunately I will have to return.
